The former stable block at 43 Carlisle Street, Preston is situated to the rear of the house, adjacent to the rear and east side boundary. It is a timber framed structure, clad in weatherboard, which has a corrugated metal gable roof featuring a lightning conductor at its eastern end. Apart from some latter trellising, this building is open at the ground floor, its side walls and two metal stanchions supporting an enclosed hay loft at first floor level. The latter is probably accessed by an internal stair or ladder, but there is also an external loading bay with a large plank door, to either side of which are boarded-up window openings.
The house at 43 Carlisle Street is a late Victorian cottage. It is constructed in weatherboard with a recently re-clad corrugated metal gable roof extending as a skillion roof over a lower rear portion which is supported on wooden posts to allow for the prevailing slope. The house retains the original two light panelled door, beneath a transom light, which is centrally positioned and flanked by two two-pane sash windows. The house is in good condition, and has a moderate degree of external integrity. The verandah has been replaced, changing its original form and materials and the chimney/s has/ve been removed.
